> everyone else's code is hard to read I agree, and that could easily be "everyone's code is hard to read". Sometimes I look at some stuff I wrote a few years back and want to smack the author for writing such crappy code

I'm just a data point, but it's something I would NEVER pay money for. You're not guaranteeing that I get what I want - a car. All I'm getting for shelling out money upfront is some quotes. I can get a million quotes any time, anywhere. Wha

I'm with you as I'm also a single 29 year old working 80 hour weeks on my startup, and still hoping one day to get married and have a lot of kids. The difference is though, we as men can (hopefully) keep spending 80 hour weeks on work now,

This is great. I would love to see a fully functioning old-school RPG created in HTML5 that I don't have to download/purchase CD, can just play in any browser, on my desktop/laptop/iPhone/iPad, with save games instantly available. One day .

I know this is a popular opinion here, but I couldn't disagree more. You're saying that it's good for everyone to try to learn to code. Far from it. Some people are just not cut out to be coders, they suck at it, they hate doing it, and the

Google Reader. I think it has the cleanest interface, good keyboard shortcuts, I never need to sign on (since I'm signed onto Gmail all the time), great mobile (iPhone) interface.

At a risk of harming myself, you guys might be giving too much stuff away for free. I've been using Freshbooks for about a year for my small business, and got most of my business partners to send me invoices through Freshbooks. We are all s

It's hard to pinpoint when, but I think at some point last year I stopped viewing Google as "special" and started considering them just one of many companies. To me, Google was special because all their early products were made to solve ver

The title is misleading. It's "here" when it ships. From the article: "The game will be released on the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 sometime in 2011". That's enough for me to keep ignoring it. I've heard "it's almost ready" since 1997, when it wa

This is a great idea. I think the same can be achieved in a lot of other neighborhoods in NYC, some closer to where action is, with a bit of planning, willing to share living space, and pure luck. For example, you can find a room in East Vi

That's a pretty ridiculous analogy. Strippers don't have to toil in a minor league strip club in Idaho for five years before finally "making it" to NYC. All it takes is a bus ticket and a lot of balls (figuratively)
